We have received numerous reports today of discoloured water along with dead fish and sheep at Rye Harbour and the River Tillingham in East Sussex.
We take pollution concerns like this very seriously and have taken numerous samples at various locations. Our samples have indicated that ammonia levels are not at levels that would cause concerns. We have also investigated all our assets and can confirm this is not related to any of our operations.
This has no relation to any of the issues relating to water supply in the area either. We will continue to support the Environment Agency in their investigation.
